Small Batch Coffee

Small Batch Coffee has two locations in Brighton, one up at Seven Dials and the other at the end of Norfolk Road where Finch Lodge is located.

Craft Beer Co

In between our first boutique hotel Finch Lodge and Brighton Station lies the Craft Beer Co Brighton outpost, a traditional style pub with a modern serving of craft beers. Part of modern beer culture involves sampling and enjoying as wide a range of beers as possible and we’re happy to report that Craft Beer Co Brighton has over 24 taps hosting a variety of styles.
